Mama Wants.....45", 12", CDs

In this day and age of digital storage and virtual memory, some of us are still investing into tangible storehouses of music. If you love the whole package ---CDs and records with their cover art---then this is the time to check out the blowout sale at the ARChive of Contemporary Music.

NEXT SALE JUNE 7 - 15

JOIN YOUR FRIENDS @ THE ARC FOR OUR
'ALL OUR RECORDS ARE NICE'
SUMMER RECORD AND CD SALE

Once again, it will be thousands of great items at rock bottom prices, in our great new space.

Z-100, the NY based 'Hit' radio station moved and ARC got their collection of LPs. So a whole lotta 80s LPs are triples and will be for sale - all in perfect condition!

This year there are more 45s than ever on offer. We've been alphabetizing again, as we do every few years or so, and Fred has found some gems in the dross. So if you're looking for bands who's name begins with an 'e,' 'i,' 'm,' 'o,' or 's,' THIS is the sale for YOU! Nice things by the Bob Seeger System, Sam the Sham, Slits, Electric Prunes, Method Actors, etcÉ

And before that ACE records set comes out, ARC is one THE ONLY place to pick up those rare A-Squared singles by the Frost or MC5. Lots of World Music, as always, including a major donation of Smithsonian and Indie CDs, including some old time fiddle stuff and a lot of Celtic albums and DVDs.

There are boxes of CDs, all at lowdown prices, by Elvis Costello, Diana Kraal, Son Volt, Duran Duran, Ry Cooder, etc. Posters are back - rare 60s gems by Gary Grimshaw, including the Who and Jimi Hendrix. Pricey, but perfect condition, with that odor of vintage silkscreen ink that we all know and love.
